Comments
Comments: Lovely day in the Evans Notch area. I had not been up here in many years. Treeline here is at about 3k, so there is a nice long stretch above treeline with a very nice alpine feel. Great views. I saw a few mountain bikers trying to ride up the summit cone. They were struggling!

Slippery Brook trail is a little long but is mostly a nice trail and bypasses the steepest ledges.

I was probably in Maine part of the time.
